Abstract

AbstractThe paper is devoted to the study of the development of educational mobile applications. By comparing the specifics of their distribution over the past five years, the authors found out the main trends in their distribution. Firstly, the formation of complex, multi-thematic and multi-format platforms for providing access to training courses has been defined as such. Secondly, the tendency to formalize self-education (the possibility of obtaining official certificates confirming the successful completion of the course). Thirdly, the growing role of various types of mobile applications as tools in the classical learning process. The principle of collaboration of different institutions in the creation of complex and high-tech mobile applications has also been noted as a trend. The connection between changes in the audience of educational services and the specifics of mobile applications as their tools has been substantiated. Emphasis has been placed on such characteristics of mobile applications as interactivity, virtuality, multimodality, personalization, and gamification.KeywordsMobile learningDistance learningMobile applicationsSelf-education
